1 | Is confession necessary for salvation? | Rom 10:17 | Searcher56 | 76445 | ||
Scripture ... Mat 10:33; Rom 1:18-20, 10:9, 15-13 ... sniper, While I think Romans 1:18-20 is an expection to the process (10:15-13) ... I don't think they heard. The process is ... one has to be sent so they can preach so others can hear -some will believe -then they'll call and then are saved Romans 10:9 talks about confession and Mattheew 10:33 is the strongest support that we need to verbalize our salvation Searcher |

Romans 1:18-20. Hello Friend, Do you still insist that they didn't hear? Or must we rely on a legalistic requirement that 'hearing' (Romans 10:9-17) can only be through the use of the auditory nerves? Do you deny that they heard when Paul says in Romans 1:18ff that they 'understood' and Psalms says "the heavens are telling of the glory of God." Oh, how the Creation testifies to the glory and power of God! Don't you agree? I'm certainly glad that I, when an awful sinner, 'heard' His message [communicated in the creation, a silent testimony of his love, power, and wisdom] even before I opened the Bible. Let's not resist the truth, for who knows what darkness might overtake us! Remember, what Romans 1 is really saying? God made himself evident (19), but men rejected Him (21), suppressed the truth (18) and chose rather to worship the creature rather than the Creator (25). And then, the depraved mind followed (28)! Wow, instead of the depraved mind leading hostile man to sin, Paul says that the choice to reject God LED TO the darkened mind. As a consequence to their rebellion, it says, "And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; 32 and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them." "ALTHOUGH THEY KNOW THE ORDINANCE OF GOD......." The original question: "Is hearing necessary for salvation" is an emphatic yes. God has made sure that they heard the messge, both general and specific, so in the end they are without excuse if they believe not. Maybe I've read you all wrong, if so, please correct me. May God bless you, Disciplerami |

3 | disciplerami, are they saved or lost? | Rom 10:17 | Searcher56 | 77045 | ||
disciplerami, this has been discussed before, but I want you to answer Are those who never heard, with their ears, -lost, without a chance to reject / receive Him -going to heaven because they never heard. Which is it, or is there another option? |

4 | disciplerami, are they saved or lost? | Rom 10:17 | greatfullydead | 77059 | ||
third option...ROMANS 2:14 judges according to heart and concience. When gentiles who do not have the law, do by nature the things required by the law, they become a law for themselves, eventhough they do not have the law, since they know the requirememts of the law is written on their heart, their conciences bearing witness, and their thoughts now accusing, even defending them. |
